Cask at GBBF 2010. An opaque brown beer with a thin brown head. The aroma has light notes of vegetables and roasted malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, and citrusy hops as well as lighter notes of roasted malt. Not much of a stout, but a decent brown ale.

From cask. Pours dark brown to black with a fully gone head. Aroma is dark malty and roasted. Sweet malty, dark breadish and hardroasted malt flavoured. Bitter and dry into the finish. Rather dry and mild acidic.

CaskGBBF2010. Murku ambery brown colour, not much head. Aroma is alcohol, fruits, earth and some mild liquorice. Flavour is fruits, liquorice, alcohol and some quite plummy notes.

Very dark brown. Aroma of harsh alcohols and grains. This is way too young to be served to the public. Light nuts and chocolate underneath of this rawness. Slick finish...not enough carbonation to pull the body along. Again, way too young.

On Tap At Bills Tavern and Brewhouse Cannon Beach OR. Black colour with lasting beige head. Liquorice aroma, along with dark malts. Full and creamy in mouth, plenty of lovely choc, balanced by slightly sour liquorice. Very good. Nice flavours, well balanced. Finish is slightly grainy. Good stout.

Draught @ the brewpub. Pours a black color with a small off-white head. Has a roasted malty and slightly hoppy aroma with some hints of chocolate. Roasted malty chocolate flavor. Has a roasted malty chocolate finish.
